Predictions:
GC: Petal Soundsations
1st RU: NorthWest Rankin
2nd RU: Texas City / Biloxi Sound Surge
3rd RU: Northeast Jones / Pearl River Central Attraction
4th RU: NorthWest Rankin Reflection
* Petal has dominated this year based on with their theme plus vocals and visual , so i wouldn’t be surprised if they win.
This is going to be a really tough battle in the tier 2 division because you really talented groups in this lineup but in my opinion i feel NorthWest Rankin is going to snatch 2nd because they have been INCREDIBLE this season and based on the win they had pull off at Purvis Invitational, they are more than likely to snatch 2nd place. As for the rest of the groups in tier 2, I really feel that Biloxi will place 3rd because they also had an INCREDIBLE season as well and they just have been climbing and climbing every step of the way, so they have done an amazing job this year! As for Northeast and Pearl River, they also had INCREDIBLE seasons as well but this placement is like a toss up between them but then again it’s like who wants it more, so im curious to see what happens between both of theses groups. And finally NorthWest Rankin Reflection, *APPLAUSE, APPLAUSE, APPLAUSE * I am so proud of them of their show this season and how they worked so hard to get noticed and they truly deserved it, so so proud of them!! But I feel they mostly likely place as well because the work ethic they put into their show is just amazing! SO CURIOUS TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS AT THIS EVENT, ESPECIALLY THE TIER 2 GROUPS!
Based on your predictions here what are your thoughts on Petal Innovations? They've already beat Biloxi and Pearl River Central this year and several large mixed groups that won't be in attendance at OG.
Petal Innovations has been really good this year as well ! I can see this group getting placed at this competition as well, but It's really hard to predict this comp because their are so many great show choir groups that are competing here ! It's kinda like a toss up between Petal Innovations and NorthWest Rankin Reflection which is going to be very interesting ! but my opinion is that Reflection might come out on top against Petal ladies.
Predictions
Womens:
1st: Petal "Innovations"
2nd: Pearl River "Illumination"
3rd: Northwest Rankin "Reflection"
Tier 3
1st: Laurel High "Showstoppers"
2nd: Wayne County "Orange Sensations"
3rd: West Marion "New Era"
Tier 2
1st: NEJ "Gold Horizons"
2nd:NWR "Rhapsody"/PRC "Central Attraction"
3rd: PRC "Central Attraction"/NWR "Rhapsody"
**** This could go ANYWAY being that Sumrall placed 1st last week beating two groups I have in the top 2 spots they possibly could come up and show out again. I am just going off what I honestly feel with the Tier 2 groups.
Tier 1
1st: Petal "Soundsations"
2nd: Texas City "Soundsations"
3rd: Appling County "Applause"
FINALS
GC: Petal "Soundsations" SWEEP
1st RU: Texas City
2nd RU: Petal Womens
3rd RU: NEJ
4th RU: NWR/PRC
*** I am not counting Sumrall out like I said they possibly could come up and get either placement in the Tier 2 division.
This also is a really good lineup for the middle division really wish West Jones "Imagination" would be there for this blood bath. Should be very interesting to see the outcome. ALSO tier 3 will also be a good one to watch as well. Women's should be interesting to watch to see if there will be any changes to what I predicted for the women's. I know all three groups will put up a good fight... TIER 1 I am honestly going to put my bet on PETAL SOUNDSATIONS to sweep this competition, but ready to see Texas City High School I know they will put up a good fight as well as Appling County High School.
i hope that someone can get a video of Biloxi Sound Surge performance at this competition!!! and post it on youtube there is no current ones on their show this year
